The Haitian flag is an adaptation of the French national flag. The blue stripe represents the union of black Haitians and mulatto Haitians, who are represented by the red stripe.

The French phrase Translates as "Evil to him, Who Evil thinks" At the court of one of the French kings a ladies garter fell to her ankle, and all the gentlemen of the court started to grin and leer. Upon this, the King qouted the above phrase. From this incident came The order of the Garter, where men of outstanding Chivalry toward Women and Children were knighted and became a Knight of the Garter, The Order still exists and is given by our Royal Family, although the reasons for becoming a Knight of the Garter now are very liberal. Modern day holders of this order have been, Winston Churchill and Margaret Thatcher.to name but a few.
